  Back by Jim Moore the Coaches Show. We got a couple of quick things
• 0:03
  here. The phantom time out called by the Boston College coach. I was
• 0:08
  watching the coach on that play. He did not call time out. Then
• 0:12
  he went over to the official and said, I called time out. Then
• 0:15
  the official went over to the referee and told him, yeah, he called
• 0:17
  time out, but there was no time out. And I was watching him
• 0:21
  because I happened to be focused down on that end of the sideline, and
• 0:25
  they somehow pulled that off. I do not understand it. Do you have
• 0:29
  any particular thought on what happened there? I know you were upset. I
• 0:33
  saw you. Yeah. I mean it was poor mechanics by the officials in
• 0:37
  my opinion. Now they'll say that it wasn't, but that's their opinion.
• 0:40
  That's fine, and they get the final say. But first of all,
• 0:43
  it was a false start. And the officially said to me, well,
• 0:47
  he was coming to call time out before the snap, and as the ball
• 0:51
  was being snapped he got the time out out. Well, on a false
• 0:56
  start, there technically is no snap. A false start is not a football
• 1:00
  play. A false start the clock doesn't run. If it did, they
• 1:04
  reset the clock. Okay, it's a no play, So the false start
• 1:10
  happened before the snap because there is no snap. If there's a false start,
• 1:12
  now they might snap it, but there's no Technically there's no snap.
• 1:15
  So their explanation made absolutely zero sense. And I told them that. I
• 1:21
  said, I, your logic is flawed here from a technical aspect, but
• 1:26
  you know, you got to let it go and you got to go on
• 1:27
  to the next play. The problem there was that was five valuable yards you
• 1:32
  should have had. Yeah. Now, but knowing what I know about calling
• 1:36
  a game is rule number one is you really got to be careful about calling
• 1:41
  the blitz out of a timeout. And we call the blitz out of a
• 1:45
  timeout, And so I broke a rule that's pretty important to me. Secondly,
• 1:49
  I could tell the back was aligned wide and was going to release,
• 1:52
  and I could have called I could have called time out. I put our
• 1:55
  players in a really tough spot there, independent of the official skill up the
• 2:00
  way they did. Yeah, all right, quick thoughts on Tennessee. Uh,
• 2:05
  we know they score a lot of points, the average thirty a game,
• 2:07
  but their defense was outstanding against Kentucky last week. Excuse me, they
• 2:12
  held the running back Ray Davis, who's the leading runner in the SEC to
• 2:15
  forty two yards two and a half yards of carry. How did they do
• 2:19
  that? Well? I think they're number seven in the country and run defense
• 2:23
  and number six and sacks. First of all, they're they're ginormous, they're
• 2:28
  fast, they're physical, they're strong, they play hard. They're a bunch
• 2:32
  of four and five stars. They played competition every week. They play well
• 2:38
  together, and that's how they do it. Mike, all right, coach
• 2:45
  onto Knoxville. Let's see, let's see if the Huskies can put us No,
• 2:49
  no, no, no, I don't want that attitude. Let's see.
• 2:51
  Let's see. Come on, I mean, I don't want to.
• 2:53
  I don't want to hear that at you. Let's see, how about on
• 2:59
  their heels shock the world down there? Come on? All right, see
• 3:02
  that's that's better. All right, appreciate it. All right, back with
• 3:07
  more of the UKON Football Coaches Show on liar Field.
